Answer:

The angle of depression for the flight part is approximately 0.2604 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The given altitude at which the helicopter is flying = 50 meters

The horizontal distance of the helicopter from the helipad = 11 kilometers = 11,000 meters

The angle of depression = The angle of elevation = Arctan(Altitude/(Horizontal distance)

Therefore;

The angle of depression for the flight part = Arctan(50/(11,000)) ≈ 0.2604 degrees

PLEASE HELP ASAP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST<br><br> Solve the quadratic equation <br> 18x^2 -153x -172 =0
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The answer is : x = 9.505 and x = -1.005

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the quadratic equation use the formula :

x=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

Where a is the coefficient of x² , b is the coefficient of x and c is the numerical term

∵ a = 18 , b = -153 and c = -172

∴ x=\frac{-(-153)+\sqrt{(-153)^{2}-4(18)(-172) } }{2(18)}

x = \frac{18+\sqrt{35793} }{36} &x=\frac{18-\sqrt{35793} }{36}

∴ x = 9.505 and x = -1.005

enot [183]
916...the 9 is in the hundreds place so its value is 900
791...the 9 is in the tens place so its value is 90

900/90 = 10
so the 9 in 916 is 10 times bigger then the 9 in 791

Area of a triangle is given by the formula A=1/2 bh. The area of the triangle shown to the right is 56 sq. units. Find its base
Westkost [7]
Given

base=2x+6
height=x+4

and
area=56 square units

56=1/2 times (2x+6) times (x+4)
times bot sides by 2
112=(2x+6)(x+4)
expand
112=2x²+14x+24
divide both sides by 2
56=x²+7x+12
minus 56 both sides
0=x²+7x-44
factor
waht 2 numbers mulitply to get -44 and add to get 7
11 and -4
0=(x-4)(x+11)
set to 0

x-4=0
x=4

x+11=0
x=-11
false, measures can't be negative

x=4


height=x+4
height=4+4=8


base=2x+6
base=2(4)+6=8+6=14



x=4 and base=14 and height=8
